THE LONG WAIT
All the people of the village
anxiously await the return,
Of the war party of brave warriors so their loved ones fate they may learn.
For as mates sons and brothers they go forth to answer the call,
The call to arms for their people that brings grief to the families of all.
So prayerfully we ask the Great Spirit
for the safety of our warriors return,
That our lives not be touched by death
so again sadness our hearts won’t have to learn.
